[31. December. 2005] New Update:

 Memorable Moments:

• Armel Of Ancient Coins teams up with Recka of Royal fam to form A&R.
• Formation and album from super group Black Market Militia
• Prodigal Sunn, Blue Raspberry & Streetlife releases their long overdue debuts.
• Wutangcorp came back online
• RZA releases The Wu-Tang Manual
• Darkim Be Allah & Allahwise returns back to the scene with new album after 5 years
• GZA/Genius teams up with DJ Muggs for an album.
• Wu Music group is formed
• GZA takes Liquid Swords Entertainment to Babygrande records.
• Wu-Tang Latino chamber is introduced to the world
• Alife NYC teamed up with Wu to release mixtapes / cloths
• Critics takes The RZA's acting skills seriously as he steals the shine on "Derailed" movie.
• Killa Sin gets out of jail.
• Chessboxin added into the Oxford American dictionary as inspired by Wu-Tang Clan
• Ghostface Killah launches dolls

 Power Movers:

• Chambermusik! [Love it or hate it, Call it a Wu site or not, Chambermusik held down Wu-Tang Clan fans worldwide with numerous releases of rare albums, Interviews of favorite artists, Exclusive news and Online radio]
• Think Differently Music [Reinventing the Wu-tang movement, Started off releasing exclusive mixtapes of unreleased Wu-tang materials, from CDs, DVDs, to Cloths and finally progressed to releasing one of the best albums of the year album via the major network] 
• Dom Pachino aka P.R. Terrorist [Quoting a fan "Dom P is like the Master P of the Killa Beez" One of the hardest working artists in the game, forming Team Napalm, releasing about 5 solid albums in a year, 2 DVDs plus running a label. Respect Due!!

Nu-Tang Clan [New Wu-tang affiliates]:

• Black Market Militia / Maccabeez [Who said Wu-killa beez only have to be initiated by The RZA? with that being true, check the line up, Killah Priest, Timbo King & Hell Razah are all official Killa beez, So when formed within themselves it is only logically nothing changes. same would go for the new line up of Maccabeez, which by the way is not a new group but the new line up was officially noted this year, and Black Market Militia regardless of the 2 non members on it.
• Harlem 6 [Introduced to the world by the RZA, they aim in the fam is to bring that "commercial underground" sound into Wu-tang, Thug Righteous Music as they call it, and also introducing Wu-tang R&B. With rumors of them working with RZA for a new album, 2006 will see what they truly have to offer under the W, and an official album will make their inclusion authentic]
• Wu-Tang Latino [The name speaks for itself, The introduction of this group was greeted with mixed feelings by fans as it was not hip-hop but a Reggeaton chamber of Wu-tang movement. Fans have also shown a strong desire for Dom Pachino to be involved in this project. With Reggeaton currently dominating the charts, Wu-Tang Latino stands a great chance of gaining new fans as well as converting non-believers.]
• 71RAW [There are still questions as to the initiation of the group, 71Raw members have confirmed they are now official killa beez, but comments by their mentor Christ Bearer suggest they are just Wu-Fam and in line or in works to become official when the time is right. Regardless of that, 71Raw have shown they are a force to be reckoned with by resurrecting that Westcoast killa Beez sound and getting everyone involved in their projects.]

Album Counts:

• Wu-Tang Clan: 2  [Strangely there were really only 2 official albums from the generals this year] GZA/Genius duet with Muggs & U-God's second album. If you add the album put out by Ghostface & Trife, plus the 3 albums 'put out for' Ol' Dirty Bastards then the count would be 5. Hopefully next year would host a higher count. 
• Wu-Tang Killa Beez: 23 [Without a doubt the killa beez held the W down this year with release of official albums via indie, major or the internet, Without mentioning the numerous quality mixtapes unleashed into the market. 
• Wu-Fam: 6 [Whose  fam and whose not, this has been a question the fans have been debating for years especially when it comes to some artists, This year have its fair share of strangeness, Artists once down were not so keen to claim their affiliations with the Wu, While others who had no links whatsoever were claiming Wu to the fullest all the way from US to Russia. The count of 6 albums exclude re-releases or re-issues.

Most Loves Moments:

• Killa Sin [Killarmy] Came back home
• LA The Darkman and Bronze Nazareth gets signed to Think Differently Music
• Ironman Meets Metal Face - The best of underground teams up as Ghostface Killah connects with MF Doom for an album.
• Liquid Sword + Soul Assassin - GZA/Genius and Cypress Hills DJ Muggs releases one of the best albums this year.
• Block Famous - Return of Darkim Be Allah & Allahwise to the music scene
• Wu-Tang Killa Beez 10th Anniversary European Tour for next year

Most Frowned At Moments:

• The Rebel - Inspectah Deck was first to team with DJ Muggs for an album but nothing cam of it, Hopefully INS would learn something from The GZA's collaboration.
• Y-Kim The Illfigure - Be it a publicity stunt or not, Y-kim airs out differences with some members of the clan and goes further by challenging the entire Wu-tang/Killa beez to a battle.
• S-Unit - Trife and Solomon Childs were at the fore front of Theodore Unit, so it was disappointing when there were rumors that S-Childs has left the set.
• Wu-Tang Reunion - A year before the Wu showed a united front just before ODB passed away, The reunion album did not happen this year but most worrying were rumors that Ghostface Killah and maybe U-God has not done any contributions to the album, It is still just a rumor as it is not a Wu-tang album without any of the members. 
• The Corp - This should have been on the most loved moments, as the Wutangcorp site came back online in full force this year and the fans found another forum to Wu, wu, wu, not just another forum but an official forum, and just as quick as it came back it went down again. At end of the year the site has promised to get back soon, So we all look forward to that.

The Illest Knob - Student Of The Old, Leader Of the New:  Wu-International catches up with Ill Knob Of KGB. KGB became known when they blasted out of the guidance of The RZA along side Protect Ya Neck/Wu-Tang management camp some years ago, dropping hot singles and featuring along side the likes of Deadly Venoms, M.M.O, Black Knights, and so on, then just like the rest of the Wu-tang clan fam affiliates, little was heard of them, the main head of the group Ill Knob surfaced in a number of projects from Storm, Mobb Deep, Daz Dillinger, and has since never looked back, the title of this short article should have been called "The return Of Ill Knob" but the truth is the God never left, he has always been doing music since he started, it was the world who was not geared up for him, it was the world that was close to forget about pretending not to know much about this talented lyricist, his "For The Streets EP" stands out to date, but regardless of all that, Ill Knob is pushing he's way back into the forefront, with his own label (Flawless entertainment), still repping KGB, and Wu-Tang, still managed by super producer Storm of Rocks The World, a new album almost complete, new mixtape completed and on sale, beef with Fat Joe and more, the question is "Is the world still ready for Knob"? Ill Knob is stepping up to the front where he rightfully belongs, Be Warned!

Find out more as Ill Knob drops tells us what he has been up, Reason for leaning forward at Fat Joe of Terror Squad, Where to get the new hot mixtape assaulting the streets, Listen to the new song Up here (or the diss song at our forum).

Wu-Life: Alife NYC has recently collaborated with the Wu-Tang Clan for a series of hoodies and Tee-Shirts. This is not the first time Alife has teamed up with Wu-tang clan members, they have been involved in preovious collaborative projects such as the  Wu-Tang Clan's 10th Anniversary Box Set Collector's edition which featured a Mathematics Mix Tape and recently with Dreddy Kruger on a WuLife limited edition Mixtape. You can view some or more of the gears at HypeBeast Online store. Props to Chambermusik forum for this update.

G-Clef Da Mad Komposa: Of Soul Kid Klik / Chambermusik fame releases 2 instrumentals albums today "Kompositionz Vol 1 & 2 [1-17 & 18-33] (The Soulkid Instrumental Classics)" respectively. G-Clef da Mad Komposa is unique among Hip-Hop Producers in that his talent as an emcee and a professional musician have put him at the underground forefront of every avant garde movement in the history of Hip-Hop since he started making tracks in 1988. Here by popular demand are some of the classic instrumental tracks that provided the sonic canvas for artists such as himself, the legendary Soul Kid Klik, Ghetto Philharmonic, Infamous Mr. Savage, Goodfella Mike G, and even the late great Weldon Irvine. Presented here in two volumes, Kompositionz, Volume 1 and 2, should finally establish, without a doubt, the classic quality of G-Clef's beats that earned him the title of the 'Mad Komposa' from his peers. Can be ordered at chambermusik. Click On Pictures for full track listing of albums, Or click on the Instrumentals album section.

[23. November. 2005] New Update

Blue Raspberry: Killa Queen Bee about to sting the nation with her soulful, highly anticipated album "Out Of The Blue", the vocal queen behind most of the Wu-Tang Clan's hits. Yes, her album is about to drop and Yes, this one is legit and definitely coming out, unlike the fake internet scam ran by Sun R.A. and label some time back. This will be coming out soon from chambermusik.

Discovered by the Clan working in a casino, Blue Raspberry emerged as the group's in-house female vocalist during the first round of Wu-Tang solo projects. She added vocals to tracks on Method Man's Tical and Raekwon's Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, but seemed to have her position somewhat usurped by Tekitha on the Clan's second album Wu-Tang Forever. Nevertheless, she has continued to appear on Wu projects including Method Man & Redman's Blackout! and the Ghost Dog soundtrack, and now about to release her solo album. A solo album, which was scheduled for 1999 but was never released, is known to be in the vaults, titled either Black Shampoo or Blunted Soul. Her stage name was given to her by Killah Priest, who said she reminded him of a blue raspberry.
Appears On: "Release Yo' Delf", "Mr. Sandman", "Stimulation", Method Man, Tical (1994); "Rainy Dayz", "Glaciers Of Ice", Raekwon, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx (1995); "What's Goin' On", Gravediggaz,The Pick, The Sickle & The Shovel (1998); "Young Hearts", Cappadonna,The Pillage (1998); "Cereal Killer", Method Man & Redman,Blackout! (1999); "Strange Eyes", "4 Sho Sho" Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai - The Album (1999); "Killa Beez" Wu-Tang Killa Bees: The Sting compilation, (2002).

The RZA Releases the Soundtrack to DERAILED on WU Music Group/36 Chambers Records: DERAILED Soundtrack in Stores November 22

The RZA executive produced soundtrack to the #3 box office hit, and Miramax film DERAILED, soundtrack is due in stores November 22. RZA, who also stars in the movie, assembled a provocative cast of artist's for the soundtrack that gives adults a diverse range of eclectic stylized R&B and urban music that was inspired by the movie.

RZA brings this production to light with tracks from talented newcomers, Queen's native, Rular Rah who takes you on a gritty journey with his rap track "Johnny," Thea, the Holland-born singer entrances you with her melodic, sexy sound on "I Love You" and "My Love," Grayson Hill puts a urban blues spin on a remake of Paul Simon's "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover," Maurice lends a seductive R&B sound to his adult themed tracks "Sabotage," "I'm Sorry" and "Better Man." The soundtrack is a worthy listen for those who can appreciate music that they never saw coming from one of hip hop's most creative and influential personas.

His Name is Free Murda and he's comin straight outta Fort Greene, Brooklyn, armed with hard, bouncy beats and a tough, in-ya-face flow.

Ghostface Killah Refuses To Perform At A Concert: By many accounts, Friday night's hip-hop and dance concert at the Millennium Center fell far short of its billing as a revolution in Triad nightlife.

The two top-billed artists did not perform. De La Soul wasn't there, and Ghostface Killah of Wu Tang Clan refused to perform after the promoter told him that he couldn't pay him in full, leaving some concert-goers feeling as if they wasted their money. The promoter, Dan Ehrlich, said yesterday that he is $15,000 to $20,000 in debt from the concert. He admitted that he has not been able to fully pay the artists because he relied on ticket sales at the door - which didn't provide enough money

Issues Surrounding Darkim Be Allah album release:  There have been an incongruous report coming in from another source on the validity or authenticity of the release of the album advertised below for Darkim Be Allah. More information on this is required from the specific party [Darkim himself] releasing the album within the next 24 hours else the advertisement would be taken down as there are net speculations that this is a bootleg, and no one is for sure it is or if it isn't. more information will be available soon as we have been informed there will be a response from Darkim in audio format soon.

Raekwon To Cast On Just For Kicks: French/American documentary directed by Thabaut De Longeville will feature Raekwon, Damon Dash, Russel Simmons, Fab 5 Freddy, Grandmaster Caz and many more. This is the first documentary on one of pop culture's biggest phenomena, Just For Kicks charts the athletics footwear fetish from sneaker's early adoption by the style of warriors of 1970's NYC to their status today as a de facto apparel of choice for an entire generation. The film looks closely at the $26 billion industry engendered by the fashion choice, and the hip-hop community that helped popularize it. click here to watch the trailer of "just for kicks". The broadcast will be followed by worldwide DVD release featuring a 90 minutes cut as well as additional bonus footage.

Ol' Dirty Bastard R.I.P.: Last year, O.D.B. (real name: Russell Jones), collapsed and died inside a recording studio in New York City; he was 35. Wu-International remembers a fallen soldier.

Rugged Child To Manchild: Big Shout Out to Shyheim who will be 28 on the 14th of this month.

The RZA's Performance On Derailed (Review): As reviewd by Jam Showbiz Movies!, Aniston and yummy British co-star Clive Owen play two astonishingly attractive, unhappily married people who meet on a Chicago commuter train when she comes to his rescue by paying his fare.
The one breakout performance is that of Wu-Tang Clan’s Rza, who manages to steal every scene he is in as Owen’s clever, cool office assistant with a shady past.
Jennifer Aniston is horribly miscast in this unintentionally funny psychological thriller about an affair gone wrong. Even worse, Clive Owen loses his British accent. The only reason for people to see this film is the scene-stealing performance of Wu-Tang Clan’s Rza, who plays Owen’s clever office assistant.

The newly formed label will function with the flexibility and independence of an indie, sustained by the resources and strength of a major, enabling MySpace Records to support niche artists as well as break-through acts expected to become mainstream.

MySpace Records will leverage the website's 36 million member community to discover, sign and market emerging artists. By engaging and interacting with the impassioned online community, the new venture will connect the bands, their fans and the label in an unprecedented way. The label will tap into the website's booming online music network of more than 550,000 bands that use MySpace to post tour dates, respond to user comments and interact directly with their fans.

The first act to sign onto MySpace Records will be Hollywood Undead, a previously unknown band that emerged with a groundswell of fans directly from its usage of, and presence on, MySpace.com. In the past three months the band has leveraged its MySpace profile to develop a fan base of more than 65,000 friends that respond to blogs, send personalized comments and even show up to participate in offline events such as a recent video shoot in Hollywood.

What does this mean for Wu-tang clan members and its affiliate? Wu-international is putting this up on its page as a lot of Wu-Tang clan member and its affiliate all have homes on this site, If every fan can join the members network to build up a substantial amount, these artists could be picked and signed by this label via interscope records. Please go to our link section  and check under "Other Host Of Official Site"  heading to see the list of wu-tang affilated artist on my space, there are definitely more on myspace than we have so if you know more please email us the links to add to the list, at the moment we have 4th Disciple, Inspectah Deck, Cappadonna, U-God, Hell Razah, Killah Priest, Makeba Mooncycle, GZA/Genius and lots more. Support the artist.

[05. November. 2005] New Update

Ghostface Killah & Trife Da God album redone and changed: Fans were disappointed  last month to learn that Ghostface Presents Trife Da God "718: Stapleton To Somali" album was shifted to 2006. It happens the album will be released "fingers crossed" on the 18th of November 2005. Unfortunately the title of the album has been changed to "Put It On The Line" and will include an additional bonus DVD, with new songs, guests, track listings and so on. This sounds all too familiar to Wu-Tang Clan fans, as this means that some songs from the initially planned release has been deleted, shelved, remixed or changed and most likely will never be released again or if lucky will be seen on future projects or mixtapes. The good news however is that the new album also contains new materials to replace any deleted or changed songs, and comes with a DVD which features Ghostface Killah, Theodore Unit,  GZA/Genius, Cappadonna, Masta Killa, Trife Da God and more - Live in NYC Oct 2005.

For a detailed difference between the two albums, please check out the Album Section and the 718: Stapleton to Somalia/Put It On The Line album's notes for a full break down.

[14. October. 2005] New Update

Latest Update On Cilvaringz: Fans especially the European based Wu-Tang Clan's fan were excited with The RZA's signing of a 1st non US based killa beez from Holland about 6 years ago. Since then, Cilvaringz has gone on to appear on the Wu-Tang Killa Beez compilation "The Sting" , The RZA's last 2 solo albums "Birth Of A Prince, and "Bobby Digital 2" Produced songs for the likes of the likes of Ghostface Killah, Warcloud and so on and releasing an instrumental album "The Mental Chambers" and  the now out of print and highly sort after Trilogy of Swordsmanship - Part I [Return Of The Ten Tigers], and Part II [All Star Collection Box], unfortunately Part III [Two Champions of Shaolin] of this trilogy never came out to date and was supposed to be an instrumental album put together by Moongod Allah and Bronze Nazareth. Cilvaringz has gone on to perform live in more than 37 countries, and latest news is that he is one track away from completing his first official album which has been in works since 1999. 

Responding to a fan on Wutangcorp forum Cilvaringz said "I've been in the lab working hard on both the DVD and album which are dropping as one package. When? I don't know, but 2006 is very realistic as I am one song away from finalizing recording. That means mixing and mastering are next. I have re-recorded a bunch of stuff, the critics made by the fans about my extensive use of the words 'sword' and 'darts' actually came in handy as they were right, I did use those words too much and wasn't saying anything intelligent in my earlier songs. As the years gone by I became more involved with international matters that attracted my attention and changed my way of thinking, writing and rhyming. On top of that I was so busy touring and setting up tours, I was dividing my focus and couldn't give 100% to my album, shelving my own shit".  The most exciting information about the album is that Cilvaringz is not just a Wu-tang clan member but also a fan and therefore, knows what the fans want and expect from a wu-tang clan album, Masta Killa proved this was possible when he released "No Said Date" and kept everything within the fam.

The Clan and affiliated member's list are massive and they are all located all across the States or out sometimes touring and this could make it impossible to keep track of them amongst their busy schedules as was in the case of Cilvaringz but he has confirmed that the current line up, which includes guest appearances from Wu-Tang Clan [The RZA, Method Man, GZA/Genius, Masta Killa, Ghostface Killah, & Raekwon] and Wu-Tang Killa Beez [Blue Raspberry, 60 Second Assassin & Killah Priest Of Sunz Of Man, Shabazz The Disciple and Killarmy]. The album also features an impressive line up of producers, think of the Wu-Elements, as it has been done by Ringz himself, The RZA, True Master, Allah Mathematics, 4th Disciple, Bronze Nazareth, Moongod Allah and Barracuda. 

The title of the album is yet unknown but one thing is for sure, the album will be accompanied by a bonus DVD,  which Ringz says would be jam packed with exclusive materials and never before seen footage "The DVD is great stuff as well, with the whole documentary on the biggest international tour done in the history of Hip hop, In the Studio, Memorable Moments, Anecdotes, Live In Reims [France], Behind the Scenes at Wu-Wear, Making of Chi Kung Video [which I directed], The World According To RZA part II in Egypt [which I directed], Shoot-outs, Deleted Scenes, etc .. a lot of shit really. I'm trying to make this album actually worth buying and enjoyable, while combining my management and touring responsibilities". 

There you have it, a hard working artists or an artist hard at work, It is quite obvious the album is heavily influenced by the nostalgic Wu sound of the 1995-1997 era, which every fan not just that of the Wu have been crying out for to date, it is definitely a project worth waiting for, and  with this year slowing creeping to an end, 2006 cant seem so far away for the fans to get a hold of a dose of what Cilvaringz has to offer.

Ghostface Killah Releases Autobiography: Iron Man: True Reflections From The Soul Of The Wu-Tang Clan.

Sinopsis:
Platinum recording artist and hip-hop legend Ghostface Killah came of age, along with the rest of the Wu-Tang Clan, in the infamous "Killer" Hill projects of Staten Island, New York. Unlike so many contemporary hip-hop stars, Ghostface has actually lived what he raps about. Famous for his intricate rhyme style and stream-of-consciousness lyrics, he quickly emerged--along with Method Man and Raekwon--as one of the biggest stars of the rap supergroup Wu-Tang Clan.
From the moment of the release of his first solo album, the now-seminal IRON MAN, Ghostface has proven to be the most critically acclaimed member of the Wu-Tang Clan. He is, quite simply, one of the most innovative and talented rappers to emerge from the hip-hop genre. His three albums are undisputed classics, and his fan base is nothing less than evangelical in its fervor. Here, for the first time, his full story--and that of the infamous Wu-Tang Clan--is finally told. Released date September 30th, 2005.

CAPPADONNA!
Now, ushers in the newest and strongest musical chapter in Cappa's ever-evolving hip-hop story. Entitled THE TRANSITION, it's a lethal album of lyrical substance, unique and straight from the street . Cappadonna, the last to join the Wu-Tang Clan, and the first to be acknowledged as
